Please ensure vehicles are removed - Waverley Park car park in Preston to close this week for the forseeable

A Preston park’s car park will close this week for the forseeable.

Waverley Park car park will be closed from Friday until further notice due to works starting on the site.

Preston City Council has granted permission for a raft of improvements to Moor Park and Waverley Park, including upgrades to their appearance and sporting facilities.

Both projects were drawn up by the city council three years ago as part of its successful bid for £20m from the previous government’s Levelling Up Fund.

The £3.2m Waverley Park scheme will see the replacement of its three football pitches, a rebuild of its skate park, the creation of a new ‘pump track’ for cyclists and the installation of a new play area.

A new pavilion will also be built, footpaths widened and the car park remodelled to create 27 new spaces - bringing the total number of bays to 34.

A spokesperson for Preston City Council said: “Please ensure vehicles are removed before this date.

“Any remaining vehicles may be removed.”
